Event Notification
I am not a MS Project expert by any means but I have been asked by our engineering department, who use Project extensively, if there is a way to have some sort of event notification. My understanding of their request is when a task is modified/updated, etc., that an email would be sent to a defined person or group of people notifying them of that change. I have Google'd it and have not had a lot of luck finding something clear other than a possibility of using Project Server, which seems like it might do it but I am not sure we would want to go to that length unless necessary.
I am sure this is not unique. Any ideas?

hi Charlie,
Microsoft Project Server is fairly easy to set up and the Installation and Administrator Guide that come with the system provide a good reference to install and configure the server to use.
It is useful to go thorugh the core concepts of MS Project Server. Once the concpts are clear one knows which section of project server is to be configured based on configuration requirements. While initial setup might not take very long or add difficulty, the concept of enterprise resources, views and roles will need some time for configuration.
Kind regards,
Haris

One last question, is Project Server a "big deal" to set up? I kind of liken it to a centralized MS Project with some added bells and whistles. Do you think that should be something I should look into based on your expierience?
